No Finger Joints!
Solid Wood is far superior to finger jointed wood, which is many small pieces glued together, each with varying grain densities that absorb and shed moisture at varying rates, expanding and contracting non-uniformly as environmental conditions change, and causing the wood to bow and the finger joints to eventually fail.
A single homogeneous kiln-dried solid wood Stretcher Bar outperforms and outlasts a finger jointed Bar whose sole purpose is to save the manufacturer cost, not contribute to the archival value of artwork intended to last a millennium. As a manufacturer, Masterpiece® does its part to conserve as much wood as possible, and still provide a quality product that will out-perform any other in the marketplace.
What is Sustainable Forestry?
To a forester, the term "sustainable" could mean exercising industry adopted forestry practices to maintain a forest indefinitely. To a logger, the process of proper care for the trees remaining after a harvest. To a landowner, their interest may lie in keeping their forest in the family. And to those of involved in the process of making and using wood-based art supplies, it can mean promoting and supporting an industry dedicated to the preservation of our precious natural resource. We can all do our part to care for our national forests.

Give me good digestion, Lord, and also something to digest; but where and how that something is to be procured, and the actual movements which must be gone through, are of no interest to me.
♦ Euge_ne Delacroix
Reflecting upon the sentiments of Eugé ne Delacroix, the famed 19th-century French Romantic artist, one can perceive a deeper undertone that goes beyond the literal words. Delacroix was not just speaking of food and digestion; he touched upon a broader theme of inspiration and the process of creation.
Every artist yearns for the sustenance of inspiration—to have a constant flow of ideas and the capacity to translate them onto canvas. Much like how we desire good digestion, artists, too, seek an effortless assimilation of their inspirations into their work. The intricate details, the laborious efforts, and the trials and tribulations of procuring that something to digest often remain obscured. For many of us, it's the end result, the masterpiece, or the feeling of accomplishment that truly matters. The journey, though essential, often fades in the light of the destination.
Delacroix's plea could be seen as a wish shared by many in the art world—a hope for consistent inspiration, paired with the ability to effortlessly manifest it. Because, at the end of the day, while the process is of significance, it's the artwork and its impact that holds lasting value.
